This remains unsolved Ryan has established it is a Triumph, but the ball needs putting in the net. Any decent strikers out there in FCF land :?:

Think perhaps a TR6?? (round headlights, think I'm right with 6 as 7 was the wedge) wouldn't have said front wheels were so very close to the front as they appear in that picture.

Oh absolutely assisted, wouldn't have got it from just that unusual side repeater alone!

Lovely deep dish steel wheels too 🙂

Wow, what a beautiful car, I thought the wheels were to close and also it looked like a squared of headlight surround from the original photo you posted. A great Whatsthisthen post!!!

It's the joining in and giving it a go that makes for a decent whatsthisthen :?: Thanks for giving that one a go Ryan.

For the thread to thrive, it needs two things, Question setters and answerers. The first are even rarer than the second. I have probably set more than a hundred questions on this thread, but that latest one was going nowhere until you chipped in. Appreciated, along with the subsequent joiners-in, Matt and Mick.

Who is going to take the responsibility and set the next one :?:

I'm keeping my eyes open for an old vehicle, there's no point in me posting a close up pic of a new electric car as they all look the same!

There is a question, too easy for a proper whatsthisthen I posed over here.
I remember them as Sunblest Vans and they had the odd windows down by the corners of the footwell. Presumably helped with not bashing into stuff. A small diversion and a bit of wiki or net search will pop out the answer.

Answers here for those who want to have a go
